“Douglas, you are an idiot!” My father’s last coherent words to me, as God is my witness. He’s not wrong. “Once you have all the information, the decision is easy!” he liked to preach.
AI is both a tool and a threat. And it may in fact be coming for your job. This year, the most accurate hurricane forecasts were AI (Google’s DeepMind model). AI is good at connecting dots and synthesizing data, casting a much wider net, faster. But I don’t trust it to make judgment calls. Sorry, but you still can’t outsource complicated decisions that require context, perspective and wisdom to a blinking machine.
A morning shower gives way to afternoon sunshine today. I see a few rainy spells the end of next week, possibly slush around Thanksgiving.
Models show 40s next week (our new definition of “warm front”) before much colder air arrives in late November and early December. We’re probably due for a Siberian spanking right?
Back to AI. Is it too late for me to become a plumber? I’ve watched a lot of amazing YouTube videos.
